The Essence of
Worship
What the Bible says about Worship & its importance:
Worship is an advanced continuation of Praise to GOD where nothing else
seems to matter but making sure that GOD is accepting of our offering!  In
Praise, we often are commanded to compel others to join us whereas in
Worship we often have to admonish those same people to continue without us
so that we can spend some time Blessing GOD for His Excellence in our lives!

Remember...
We are to always Praise GOD for what He has done, is doing, and will do!!!
However, we are to Worship GOD for who He is & because He is GOD alone!!!
We Praise GOD for His Goodness!!  We Worship Him for His Greatness!!
